Description
Summary:Some historians believe that at least two generations must pass before a good history of a period can be written. If this adage is true, then lawyers and scholars of church and state have eagerly awaited the fiftieth anniversary of that most seminal era in church–state history, the period between 1947 and 1963 when the Supreme Court established modern church–state jurisprudence. Since the early 2000s, we have benefitted from several significant studies of the period, from Bruce Dierenfield's book on the Engel case and John McGreevy's Catholicism and American Freedom to more recent works by Sarah Barringer Gordon and Shaun A. Casey. Now a new work adds to our understanding of that transformative era. In Religious Lessons, Kathleen Holscher offers a fresh insight into the period.
